Attention Sims fans! The infamous Burglar, Robin Banks, is back in The Sims 4! This nostalgic addition to the latest update brings a familiar level of mischievous mayhem to PC and console players.
Banks, a staple of older Sims games, is making a comeback, so safeguard your Sims' valuables! She operates under the cover of night, targeting homes while Sims are asleep, though daring daylight heists aren't unheard of. Stay vigilant!
To thwart her, utilize the burglar alarm; triggering it guarantees a swift police response and the recovery of stolen goods. Alternatively, a quick call to the authorities (or some good old-fashioned vigilante justice) will also do the trick.
The Sims team expressed their excitement about this addition, stating that Robin Banks is not only there to rob your Sims' houses but also to "steal your hearts." This update serves as a fitting tribute to The Sims' 25th anniversary.
Despite being a decade old, The Sims 4 continues to thrive, attracting over 15 million new players last year alone. Its transition to free-to-play in 2022 resulted in a staggering 31 million new players, boosting its total player count to 85 million by May 2024. For now, however, there are still no plans for The Sims 5.
